, 'y PUZZLE.`

Application led December 9, 1924, Serial No.

This invention rela-tes to puzzles and has for its object to provide animproved form of puzzle block requirinfr the rearrangement `afterdivision into geomerically similar submultiples which have to be placedside by side in the requisite correlation to give the solution to thepuzzle.

The improved form of puzzle provided in accordance with this inventionis a double solution puzzle and comprises a block or sheet intended tobe divided into geometrically similar submultiples, one side of thesheet bearing a numerical puzzle and the other a design puzzle, thesetwo puzzles be ing such that after the block has been subdivided and thesubmultiple portion correctly rearranged, the solved arrangement ot' thepuzzles appears simultaneously on both sides.

The accompanying drawingsillustrate a form of the invention in which anumerical puzzle appears on one side of the block or sheet and apictorial puzzle appears on the other side. Y

In these drawings:

Fig. l represents the front side of a puzzle block or sheet inaccordance with the present' invention.

F ig. 2 represents the rear side thereof.

Fig. 3 represents the front side afterit has been cut up into.V smallsquares and the squares have been rearranged to solve the front puzzle.

Fig. 4 represents the rear side correspond- 35 ing to Fig. 3.

In the form shown, the front portion of the block or sheet, Which may beof cardboard, or of any other material, is printed 754,835, and in GreatBritain October 7, 1924.

into squares and each square has on each side a number. The rear of theblock has a printed advertisement or announcement in patchwork orincongruous form. To solvethe puzzle the block or sheet is first dividedup into squares and the squares have to be so arranged that on the frontall the adjacent numbers add up to ten and on the rear the announcementWill read".`

The block or sheet may have the requisite Working printed thereon or itmay be embossed or otherwise formed and the division may be made bycutting or the blocks may be provided With lines of Weakness so thatthey may be readily broken into the requisite submultiple parts.

It will be noticed that in the form of puzzle shown the front portionbefore di-` vision contains a number of independently clear or legibledesigns While the design on the back is random or incongruous.

, I claim A double solution puzzle, comprising a block of materialmarked on one facefor subdivision into geometrically similarsubmultiples, said block having a numerical puzzle in unsolvedarrangement on one face and a design puzzle in unsolved arrangementsupon the other face, the respective puzzles being so relatively disposedon the respective faces that when the block is divided intogeometrically similar submultiples, and such submultiples are correctlyarranged to solve the puzzle on one face, such arrangementcorrespondingly solves the puzzle upon the other face.

In testimony whereof I ai'lix my signature.
